Today, I made microwaveable popcorn. When the bag finished popping, I took it out and opened it and put my face in close to get a big whiff. It now feels like I have third degree burns inside my nose and behind my eyes. FML

AlbertEinstein_ tells us more.

This is my FML, i had to make an acc to comment! I know, people, this was so incredibly stupid!! I have no idea why the hell I thought that would be a good idea, I think I wanted to check if there was salt in it before I left the kitchen (no idea how smelling it would clarify) so that I wouldn't have to get back up! I totally deserved this one, and I will surely never, ever do this again! My original FML had "And yes, it is possible to be this stupid" at the end, but that must've been edited out :( And I put the name Albert Einstein cause it was ironic or something, I don't know. But I certainly didn't think I was smart or anything....And my eyes still hurt :(

...Have you never made popcorn before? Or read the big letters on the bag that say; "CAUTION: CONTENTS ARE HOT!"?

People like you are the reason we have warning labels.

Orville Reddenbachers movie theatre butter popcorn is the best. Dammit, I am hungry for popcorn now (leaves to get a bag to pop in the microwave).

Soak your face in cold water or use a cold compress, OP. Burns from steam can be worse than actually burning yourself, and the only relief is soaking in something cold. For a very long time!

So they're supposed to put a cold compress inside their nose and on their eyeballs? Great advice! -___-

Well they could drown them-self in ice-water. It would would dull their pain and cleanse the gene pool.

66 you're a ******* idiot sweetheart. If you can't figure out what I said, keep your brain cell killing comments to yourself. Putting a cold compress on your face does not mean shoving it up your nose. Have you never laid a hot wash cloth on your face just before you wash it?

Just because OP didn't read the caution label doesn't mean she's illiterate. Are you?

YDI for lacking common sense and staining Einstein's name.

YDI have you never seen the smoke that comes out the first few seconds.
